across her back. She found a tall, narrow window in the far wall. Looking through the miniblinds, she saw blue sky with a couple of small clouds. It was morning. But how much time had passed since Wayne’s attack? Hours? Days? Longer?
    Pulling her gaze from the window, she looked down and saw she was lying in what had to be a hospital bed, covered with a white cotton blanket and light-green sheets. Okay, she was in the hospital. When her awareness expanded another level, she realized there was someone in the room with her.
    “How are you feeling, baby girl?”
    Turning her head in the direction of the voice caused her to moan softly in pain. KJ sat in the recliner, which he had turned to face the bed. He was wearing his police uniform and looked good enough to eat if it did not hurt just thinking about getting to what was underneath.
    She licked her lips and tried to take a deep breath, but the pain in the left side of her chest spiked as she did. Shifting to a more comfortable position, she opened her mouth to speak.
    “Shhh, don’t talk yet. You need some more time to heal,” he said as he stood up and approached the bed.
    In a move that told her he had done this before, he lowered the side rail of the bed. He settled on the mattress slowly, obviously trying not to jostle her or cause her pain. Reaching for something out of her line of sight, he brought a plastic cup with a straw into view.
    “What? Where? How long?” she demanded in a barely there voice.
    “You’re in the hospital. I brought you here about six hours ago when you would not wake up. They just settled you into this room a couple of hours ago. Do you remember being attacked?”
    Stacy closed her eyes as she nodded. “Wayne was pissed.” She swallowed and then whispered, “Tired.”
    She felt KJ brush a soft kiss on her forehead. “Sleep, mate. It’s the best thing for you. I’ll be here when you wake up.”
    “Okay,” she breathed before slipping back into the darkness.

    Exhausted himself, KJ carefully laid down next to his mate and pulled her into his arms. As his arms wrapped around her, she sighed and cuddled even closer to his side before settling into a deep sleep.
    Thanks to the slight change in her blood, thanks to their mating, she was healing much more rapidly than a normal human would. Another few hours of rest and she would be healed enough to go home.
    KJ’s cock stiffened as her hand came to rest in the center of his chest and petted him as she would a regular cat. Taking a deep breath, he rested his cheek against the top of her head, surrounding her as best he could.
    “I love you, my sweet mate,” he whispered just before he closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and fell asleep.

    When Stacy woke next, she was sore but not in the deep, intense pain she had felt earlier. She did feel hungry, horny, and needing to pee. Opening her eyes, she smiled when she realized the hard pillow under her cheek was actually KJ’s shoulder. Her right hand had drifted down his body to his waist. She slowly stroked her fingers further down his body, finding a hard, erect cock pressing at the zipper of his uniform pants.
    “Keep that up, and you’re going to find yourself in some serious trouble for arousing a cop.” KJ’s sleepy voice startled her.
    Stacy smiled, her pussy juices flowing as the muscles between her legs clenched and relaxed. She laid her palm over his erection and began to massage it. A low, dark growl rumbled under her ear.
    “What’s the penalty for such an offense, officer?”
    “Depends on how you’re feeling, mate.”
    “Hungry, horny, and I need to pee,” she admitted softly.
    “How’s your pain level?” His hand began to rub up and down her side then slid farther around her body to cup her breast in his hand.
    “I’m feeling pretty good,” she said, shifting and pushing her breast deeper into his palm. As her erect nipple brushed across his skin, she made a small sound of
